articles of a small value were picked up on
March 20 near Cabot island, Bona Vista

Eagle on March II does not believe the re-
ports of the disaster. An arrival from the

A California Hotel Burned,

MONTEREY, Cal, April THE Hotel De-
Monte was discovered on fire shortly before
midnight Friday night. Everything was
done to save it, but without success. The
magnificent hotel and contents are a total
wreck. No lives lost. There were nearly
200 guests in the hotel, mostly eastern peo-
pie. Fire was discovered quick enough to
give all an opportunity to escape. Most OF
the guests lost all their trunks and clothing.
Those who were not overcome by fright
saved their jewels and money. They were
all huddled together on the grounds, where
they had to ,shiver all night, many of them
having nothing more than their night
clothes on,

people paid the admission of 81 apiece to
witness the sparring exhibition given at the
Concordia opera house Friday evening by
John L. Sullivan and his troupe. There
were six set-tos in all, Sullivan contesting the
second and sixth, Of three rounds each, with
Joe Lannon, Of Boston. and Steve Taylor,
of Jersey City, respectively. At the opening
Of the second contest Sullivan begged that
the audience overlook any shortcomings in
the use of his left arm, which was broken in
his fight with Patsy Cardiff, as his confidence
in its strength was not fully restored, and,
besides, he wanted to nurse it "lor the bene-
fit of some fellow on the other side of the
water who might imagine that he could
wrest the championship from America"
Very soft gloves were used in the exhibi-
tion.
Pat Sheedy, Sulliyan'S manager, said Fri
day night to United Press reporter, that
he would fight kilraiu for all or none of the
gate receipts and from four to forty rounds.

PARNELL ON COERCION.
HE MAKES "A BRILLIANT SPEECH IN
OPPOSITION TO THE BILL.

| ClOture Carried by the House OF Com
mons Amid Cries of Tyranny" by the
Parnellites-Hanging Russian Nihi1ists
English Swindlers Refused Pardon
Notes from Foreign Chimes.
LONDON, April 4-In the house Of COM
mons Friday night cloture was carried by a
vote Of S6l to 25S, and the first reading OF
the coercion bill was agreed upon without
division. The announcement Of the result Of
the cloture division was received with cheers
and counter cheers, and cries from the Par
nelliteS Of "Tyrannyr' Down with the
Speakerr All the members on the front
opposition bench, with Gladstone leading,
left the house, followed by a large body Of
Liberals
Psrnen made brilliant speech in opposi-
tion to the coercion bill and was vocifer-
ously cheered during its delivery and at its
conclusion. He said that the land bill re-
vealed the extent of the plot and the gravity
Of the conspiracy through which the Con-
servatives anu Liberal Uniouists intended to
try to coerce tenants in Ireland into the pay.
ment Of impossible rents and compel them to
purchase their landlords interests at
exorbitant rates. If the house should
ever give the government the power
o thus coerce the people the result would
most certain ly be Wholesale repudiation, in
volving immense loss to the British ia <
payer. In justly regulated land pur chase
lay the only hope for settling the land ques-
ton. He went on to complain of the ab-
sence of official information concerning crime
in Ireland. The National league had been
called tyranny, but there was no proof that
any pressure had been put on any one to
join the league. Proceeding to discuss the
provisions of the bill, Parnell contended
that the powers given TO magistrates would
enable them to send political opponents to
prison for six months. No part of
previous coercion acts ever excited so
much distrust of English justice as
the proposal to change the venue
Of trials and bring Irishmen before special
English juries. What was the only state of
society that could arise under this reign of
terrorl Secret societies would spring up,
fostered by the suffsrings of an oppressed
nation, and those who had been persistent in
counssling the people to observe patience
and moderate on might counsel in vain, but
he would still counsel them to submit to in
Justice rather than retaliate or do anything
that might drive Gladstone from their side
or place him in false position with the
Liberals. Their battle was now won in Ire
land A little waiting and the eternity pro-
posed for this bill would disappear before the |
brighter time when Gladstone would ap- |
peal once more to the sense Of justice OF |
the people of Great Britain and receive full |
power to do right to Ireland.

THEY KISS THE HAND THAT SMITES
THEM

Although the President Of the National
Civil Service Reform League and the Editor
Of - Haper's Weekly combine themselves in
the person Of Mr.. George William Curtis.
vet they seem to preserve distinct individual
tiles and to be capable of saying opposite and
wholly inconsistent things. Mr. Curtis, the
Independent kcformcr, says :" A general re-
construction OF the Civil Service, ! regret to
say has taken place under his (Clcvcland's)
Administration Mr. Curtis, tho Editor, cx
plains that this is not TO be construed as i'm
porting regret at having supported Cleveland
in 1884. Mr.. Curtis, the Rcformcr, declares
that the President "has undoubtedly found
the force Of the spoils tradition to be over
whclming." Mr.. Curtis, Nc Editor, contends
that this is no intlmation that he will not
support in 1888 the man who has surrendered
to the spoils tradition as against any other
probable candidate.
In other words, tho free. trade element of
the Mugwump party has frightened Mr.. Curtis.
If what he said at Newport be conceded by
the Mugwumps generally, and rs matter OF
fact it is more than true then the Mugwump
experiment OF accomplishing reform outside
Of the party has been complete failure, and
the obvious lesson Of 1t Is TO return TO their
allegiance. The Free Traders, who arc moth
ing if not theoretically nimblc, saw this at
once and sounded doleful alarm. Mr. Curtis
heard, and now haStcns to explain that though
he really did say that Cleveland had been n
traitor to reform and that while what he sand
is true, yet he didn't intend anything harsh
by IT.; he was glad he had helped to elect
t,ott or and Il 10 LoI h.,
chance.
To an outside observer Mr. Curtis's position
looks both humiliating and absurd One would
think that person who had been sew rely
kicked by an animal in the kindly disposition
of whose heels he had misplaced his conf
dence, would at least know enough to get I'D
and go home. One would scarcely expect him
to stay there and toy with the legs that had
once already laid him low. Even
